Bloodhound.ELAM.1 is a detection technology designed for the Windows 8 operating system to detect early launching threats such as malicious driver files.

Malicious driver files can take advantage of early loading to begin execution at the start of the boot-up process, even before the operating system itself. Symantec’s Early Launch Anti-Malware (ELAM) technology allows your product to detect these threats and take action against them.

If your product reports this detection, it means there is a malicious driver file on your computer that requires your attention.
